"Forgotten Freshness" was a 1995 compilation album from the Insane Clown Posse. The first in the "Forgotten Freshness Series", the album features unreleased and "lost" tracks that are harder to find elsewhere.Insane Clown Posse (1995). "Forgotten Freshness". Liner notes. Psychopathic Records.] This album features some samples that were not cleared for national distribution; therefore, this album was only released in the Detroit area and the mid-west and in limited copies. In 1998 the ICP released Forgotten Freshness Volume 1 & 2. Many of the tracks on this album appeared again on those albums for wider distribution purposes. Because this is not an official "volume", "Forgotten Freshness Volume 1 & 2" are considered the first and second in the "series", but in reality those albums are the second/third, then Forgotten Freshness Volume 3 the fourth, and Forgotten Freshness Volume 4 the fifth.
